Product Information

Although long considered to be a barren region on the periphery of ancient Chinese civilization, the southwest massif was once the political heartland of numerous Bronze Age kingdoms. Their distinctive material tradition--intricately cast bronze kettle drums and cowrie shell containers--have given archaeologists and historians a glimpse of the extraordinary wealth, artistry, and power exercised by highland leaders in prehistory. After a millennium of rule however, imperial conquest under the Han state reduced local power, leading to the disappearance of Bronze Age traditions and a fraught process of assimilation. Instead of a clash between center and periphery or barbarism and civilization, The Ancient Highlands of Southwest China examines the classic study of imperial conquest as a confrontation of different political times. Alice Yao grounds an archaeological account of the region where local landscape histories and funerary traditions bring to light a history of competing elite lineages, warrior cultures, and of kingly genealogies. In particular, this book illustrates how buried precious material objects--drums, ornate weaponry, and cowries--enabled the transmission and memorialization of biographies and lineage wealth across successive generations. A provocative picture emerges of imperial absorption and change as a problem entangling the generational time of highland leadership and its political cycles and the penetration of Chinese dynastic history as well as time of bureaucracy and state economy. Yao extends conventional approaches to empires to show how prehistoric forms of temporal experience can complicate imperial efforts to incorporate and unify time.

Reviews
"In a theoretically nuanced book, Alice Yao provides a rich empirical study of Southwest China during the period of Han imperialism. Her approaches to historicity, frontier, temporality, and periphery contribute new ideas to archaeological literature on identity and memory, and in the process undermine conventional views of indirect Han rule on the margins of empire." --Rowan K. Flad, Harvard University "This archaeological history of Han China's southern frontier explores local elites' confrontation with the state's imperial reach through time. In synthesizing textual and archaeological materials from Southwest China, Yao's mortuary and landscape study offers valuable insights for comparative studies of agents who alternately created, sustained, and resisted ancient empires." --Miriam T. Stark, University of Hawai'i, Manoa, "...a groundbreaking work in disentangling the complex history that is often clouded by a center-dominated narrative. It is a crucial theoretical contribution to the field...Her innovative anthropological approach...will contribute to revolutionizing our understanding of transmitted texts (e.g., bronze inscriptions) as the study of them often is often constrained by the text and its immediate archaeological contexts. It will also be valuable in the research of Bronze Age cultures and interactions in the central and marginal areas across China...There is thus no doubt that themethodologies and theories will be extremely influential to related fields. Beyond this, this book is also a great effort echoing James Scott's (2011) research on the peripheral societies and their significant role in the making of history." --Yijie Zhuang, American Anthropologist "In a theoretically nuanced book, Alice Yao provides a rich empirical study of Southwest China during the period of Han imperialism.
